Wherever you are in this beautiful world.

My name's Ethan and I'm in your real life English fluency coach.

This week I have a lesson with one of the TV series that is considered to be one of the best of all time.

A lot of you have actually requested this particular scene.

It is very iconic where the main character waltz transforms from being an innocent high school teacher toe where we really see him as a criminal.

If you have not already seen the Siri's, this will be a great introduction that I really highly recommend that you watch it at some point.

And if you already know it, why not go back and revisit it to practice your English?

So you're going to learn a ton of great expressions today.

Let's jump into this lesson with breaking bad.

If you are in danger, we go to the police so I don't want to hear about.

I know what it could do to this family, but if it's the only real choice we have if It's either that or you getting shot when you open your front door warrior about You're not some hardened criminal, Walt.

We're done roped into working, unable to even quit.

Walt, please, Let's both of us stop trying to justify this whole thing and admit you're in danger.

I mean, even if I told you you wouldn't believe it.

You know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work.

A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up disappears.

It ceases to exist without may Know you clearly.

I don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in.

And now it's time to begin today's lesson.

I'm going to give you a quick lesson on the extremely common American native tendency to pronounce the word to as duck.

So, for example, in this two minute scene alone, we saw four examples of this.

If you are in danger way we go to the police.

Let's both of us stop trying to justify this whole thing.

Stop trying to justify You know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work?

First of all, natives and especially Americans tend to pronounce the t sound like a soft D which is called a flap or an American tea.

The word better and water are pronounced as better and water.

The general, but not complete rule is that the flap t happens when the T sound is surrounded by vow sounds and the previous syllable is stressed.

For example, the T sound and better and water has bell sounds on both sides of the tea, and both are stressed on the first syllable better and water.

This can also happen with a tea at the start or end of the word, and as we see in today's scene, it is very common for natives.

Pronounce, too, as a quick duck when preceded by a stressed vowel sound.

For example, go to the police natives pronounce as coated.

Police Police repeat after me Goethe, Goethe Due to this family natives pronounce as I know what it could do to this family do to this family.

But the final two examples completely break the oversimplified T between two vowel sounds.

In fact, the valve before the tea doesn't need to be a vow.

Listen, repeat the falling examples in which the flap T is preceded by an end sound.

Stop trying to justify natives pronounce as stop trying to justify Stop, Just repeat after me tryingto tryingto remember the I.

G and words like trying and going are off to reduce to try and and go in and spoken English to stop going to work.

Name is pronounced as stop going into work going.

All right, I hope that powerful pronunciation tip opened your mind to American pronunciation.

And now let's jump into the vocabulary lesson.

If you are in danger, we go to the police.

If you ask or say something lightly, you say it in a way that is not serious.

This is more commonly used in the negative, as in the case.

In this scene example, she told her ex to stop calling her, and obviously she didn't say that lightly.

If it's either that or you getting shot when you open your front door, you to shoot, get shot.

In this case, to shoot means to shoot a gun, which is conjugated as shoot shot shot in the past and past participle.

But to get shot is to be shot by the gun.

You're not some hardened criminal Walt hardened literally to become more hard, as opposed to become more soft But in this case, it's used to describe someone who no longer gets upset or shock.

Buy something because they've gotten used to experiencing bad things.

Hardened criminal is a common coal occassion, but this is also said as to become hard into something example.

As a police officer, he's become hard into a lot of things other people would find disturbing.

That's what we tell them to be or get in over your head.

To be or get involved in a situation that is too difficult for you literally to be in over your head is when things accumulate above the level of your height, such as the deep part of the pool.

Or in this picture, which communicates the literal and figurative meeting example.

I shouldn't have waited until the last minute to start it.

Now it's your turn to put it into practice.
